Create: All the Things

Welcome to Create: All the Things

This is a custom modpack with the Create mod and all of it’s add-ons at its core. It also features things like MineColonies for added world building and civilization.

There’s also additive gameplay via magic mods like Blood Magic, Botania, Forbidden Arcanus. This is a for-fun project so I may be slow to update the pack.

If you have questions I’d love to discuss on Discord.

Currently, most of the create add-ons haven’t been updated to support 1.21, so this version of the pack will not be on 1.21. However, if all the mods are on 1.21, then I will consider it as a 2.0.0 release of the pack. I don’t have any intention on supporting older versions of minecraft, so each version I release will be specifically built for a single version of minecraft.

Binding Adjustments

Some of the bindings don’t make the most sense in the base mod, or they have conflicts. Below is a list of what changes I’ve personally made, but you’re welcome to do your own changes.

• I re-binded my journey map to the M key and set FTB Chunks map to J, effectively swapping them.
• I re-binded my Carry-On pickup to Left Alt because it conflicted with Easy Villagers and Easy Piglins pick up button

Multiplayer Hosting

This pack hopefully should work with any third-party hosting solutions. I personally host my own server by hosting a docker container on a dedicated server. The following section will be focused on configuring that for automated updates based on pack version. Note, this is how I personally host my own server that is free to join for my Discord community so I’d be happy to have you on there.

For reference the tools that I use are the following:

• https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server <- Dockerized minecraft servers
• https://www.portainer.io/ <- Docker container UI
• https://github.com/MatchbookLab/local-persist <- Local persisted docker volumes

General environment variables used:

• EULA = true
• CF_API_KEY (you’ll need to go to https://console.curseforge.com/ and generate an API Key… more info HERE)
• TYPE = AUTO_CURSEFORGE (this allows it to download the pack automatically)
• CF_PAGE_URL = https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/create-all-the-things
• USE_AIKAR_FLAGS = true

The use of local-persist, is designed for properly mapping files between the host system and the docker container. You can create a volume and then attach it to the docker container. Ideally, the docker container is set to always restart, otherwise you’ll have to manually restart it if it crashes. If you are trying to do this yourself and want help then let me know on Discord.
